Fix a minor regression that some compiler might notice.
* 'jk/function-pointer-mismatches-fix' (early part):
fsck: use enum object_type for fsck_walk callback
We prefer for callback functions to match the signature with which
they'll be called, rather than casting them to the correct type when
assigning function pointers. Even though casting often works in the real
world, it is a violation of the standard.
We did a mass conversion in 939af16eac (hashmap_cmp_fn takes
hashmap_entry params, 2019-10-06), but have grown a few new cases since
then. Because of the cast, the compiler does not complain. However, as
of clang-18, UBSan will catch these at run-time, and the case in
range-diff.c triggers when running t3206.
After seeing that one, I scanned the results of:
git grep '_fn)[^(]' '*.c' | grep -v typedef
and found a similar case in compat/terminal.c (which presumably isn't
called in the test suite, since it doesn't trigger UBSan). There might
be other cases lurking if the cast is done using a typedef that doesn't
end in "_fn", but loosening it finds too many false positives. I also
looked for:
git grep ' = ([a-z_]*) *[a-z]' '*.c'
to find assignments that cast, but nothing looked like a function.
The resulting code is unfortunately a little longer, but the bonus of
using container_of() is that we are no longer restricted to the
hashmap_entry being at the start of the struct.

We switched the function interface for fsck callbacks in a1aad71601
(fsck.h: use "enum object_type" instead of "int", 2021-03-28). However,
we accidentally flipped the type back to "int" as part of 0b4e9013f1
(fsck: mark unused parameters in various fsck callbacks, 2023-07-03).
The mistake happened because that commit was written before a1aad71601
and rebased forward, and I screwed up while resolving the conflict.
Curiously, the compiler does not warn about this mismatch, at least not
when using gcc and clang on Linux (nor in any of our CI environments).
Based on 28abf260a5 (builtin/fsck.c: don't conflate "int" and "enum" in
callback, 2021-06-01), I'd guess that this would cause the AIX xlc
compiler to complain. I noticed because clang-18's UBSan now identifies
mis-matched function calls at runtime, and does complain of this case
when running the test suite.
I'm not entirely clear on whether this mismatch is a problem in
practice. Compilers are certainly free to make enums smaller than "int"
if they don't need the bits, but I suspect that they have to promote
back to int for function calls (though I didn't dig in the standard, and
I won't be surprised if I'm simply wrong and the real-world impact would
depend on the ABI).
Regardless, switching it back to enum is obviously the right thing to do
here; the switch to "int" was simply a mistake.

When commit c4e2aa7d45 (notes.c: introduce "--[no-]stripspace" option,
2023-05-27) mentioned the new `--no-stripspace` in the documentation for
`-m` and `-F`, it created run-on sentences. It also used slightly
different language in the two sections for no apparent reason. Split the
sentences in two to improve readability, and while touching the two
sites, make them more similar.

In 7ba7c52d76 (upload-pack: fix race condition in error messages,
2023-08-10), we have fixed a race in t5516-fetch-push.sh where sometimes
error messages got intermingled. This was done by splitting up the call
to `die()` such that we print the error message before writing to the
remote side, followed by a call to `exit(1)` afterwards.
This causes a subtle regression though as `die()` causes us to exit with
exit code 128, whereas we now call `exit(1)`. It's not really clear
whether we want to guarantee any specific error code in this case, and
neither do we document anything like that. But on the other hand, it
seems rather clear that this is an unintended side effect of the change
given that this change in behaviour was not mentioned at all.
Restore the status-quo by exiting with 128. The test in t5703 to
ensure that "git fetch" fails by using test_must_fail, which does
not care between exiting 1 and 128, so this changes will not affect
any test.
